06.05.2018

Inspiration Days of “Sustainable entrepreneurship in countryside” on 7.-8. February 2018 brought entrepreneurs to Arenduskoda area.

Our group met in Lauli Loovstuudio in Kadrina. Loovstuudio – Creative studio is a good example of being an independent entrepreneur. Hostess Heli became entrepreneur when she decided to quit working for others and follow her passion – to consult and support those in need and go in for handicraft. She has studied different therapies and handicraft styles. By her home, working studio was built. Today, she offers courses, workshops and therapies. We had a chance to create our own masterpieces of clay, enjoy snacks and Heli’s wonderful harp playing.

After that, we were accomodated at Vihula manor. There, we experienced the manor’s history as well as its different services and products. Guests were impressed by all additional services and products. One of good examples was a vodka tasting workshop where guests could also prepare their own mixture.
